Metroid Prime 4 in 2015 confirmed.

Screw the Prime series. We need a new AAA 2D Metroid. They will have gained a lot of 2D expertise with those DK games, so let them use it to create a compelling 2D Metroid.

As good as the Prime series is, the first game in particular, these games didn't succeed in putting the bar higher than Super Metroid did in 1994.

Not sure if this is even possible, but I guess they should try at some point.

Changing up the formula with the first-person perspective turned out fantastically. Avoiding negative comparisions to Super Metroid by being different, while recieving many praises for the similarities. I don't expect that to work much longer, if at all anymore, so yes... 2D please.
